That was a specific recommendation of the 9/11 Commission in the interests of transparency and accountability. We also greatly improve the provisions that in our law and policy are aimed at disrupting terrorist infiltration of our borders. This bill requires the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of State to strengthen the security provisions of the socalled visa waiver program. It also authorizes an electronic travel system that would require travelers to apply in advance for authorization to visit the United States. thus allowing their names to be checked against terrorist watch lists. I am very proud of the bill we present after almost 2 weeks of debate to our colleagues in the Senate for final consideration.
